Leave the sharp objects alone. ;-)

Smiley J, the key to the diagnosis is, "What were you smoking at the time?"
:funn: :rofl:

Actually it's not funny. Hope U B OK SJ.

You trimmed a tree with a serrated bread knife??? I gotta get past this part first before I read about any diagnosis.;-)

I know, peanut gallery. But I have been a good girl all day, so I need to let off a little SoWal steam. Plus you are just too easy to tease.

The name Tim the Toolman Taylor comes to mind.

Well, I was wearing thick leather gloves, but they were no match for that blade. I am just thankful that the knife had to go through the leather before reaching my finger.

Actually, serrated knives have a lot to answer for. Bagel injuries are one of the top leading reasons for emergency room visits. You just got a little more creative than most.

if you want to deaden a nerve ...a jumbo may be in order...of course the rest of your body will be deadened as well... "Oh...plastic cup wench!?!?!...where are you?!?!?"

One of my bff was slicing a bagel one morning and about cut a finger off! She did some serious damage and was in a wrap/cast thing forever!

How's the tree?

How's the tree?

That tree died shortly after my Iguana ate all of the leaves. He loved that tree.

When are you going to quit sharp objects? I think Beachbummet nailed the diagnosis, you are continuing to irritate a sensory nerve. My guess is that when your connective tissue grew back after the wound to your 'birdie finger':funn: , there was probably some scarring, so there is a compressed space in your finger. When you flex and extend your fingers, you probably have some of that scar tissue kissing a nerve in there.
